Cyber Fringe Festival: 23 to 27 November 2020

This informative and engaging five-day festival, brought to you by the University of Wolverhampton and Cyber Quarter Ltd based in Hereford will give delegates, hosts and speakers a unique opportunity to engage with world class thought leaders and cyber security specialists. The festival separates each specialist day into Strategic, Technical, and Operational talks, so you can discover topics most relevant to your needs, in a vendor-neutral environment.

Delegates can register for free to gain essential knowledge to deliver and build their cyber skills. Make connections, have conversations, and access the latest technologies, to safeguard and build your organisation.

In such challenging times facing a new era within the business world, we now require a blended approach to deliver effective affordable cyber security solutions.

By attending, hosting, or speaking at the Cyber Fringe Festival, you will receive a novel experience from the blended delivery format delivered in partnership with Digital Leaders.

It enables delegates to create their own tailored programme, attend talks seated in virtual rooms and ask questions.

Registered delegates will be able to discuss and share best practice and access solutions from carefully selected Guest Speakers and Hosts offering insights and examples of their solutions to Cyber Security and Defence.

These honest and professional insights will be delivered through a variety of VIP interviews & presentations, CPD workshops & short commercial courses, as well as exclusive networking opportunities.

We will also have on hand Academics, Research and Development experts from the University of Wolverhampton’s Cyber Research Institute, and key representatives from strategic government departments, mostly from within the UK with some invited international VIP representatives.
